What is a DPF Filter?
All modern cars with a diesel engine have a diesel particulate filter. The DPF filter captures incompletely combusted fuel (soot) from the engine that would otherwise end up in the environment.
In the course of time the DPF-filter becomes full. The car’s electronics ensure that this soot is cleanly burned during motorway driving or when the engine is under a heavy load. This is known as regeneration.
Regeneration reduces harmful exhaust emissions and helps to prevent the tell-tale black smoke that can sometimes be seen from diesel vehicles, especially when accelerating.
What are some common DPF problems?
Engine component failures such as EGRs and boost pipes, incorrect or overfilling oil and stop / start driving can prevent the engine from reaching the conditions needed for regeneration. This leads to soot buildup, eventually blocking the DPF and triggering a warning light on the dashboard. If you ignore the warnings then a blocked DPF will result in a costly trip to the garage.
Solution: JLM Diesel Particulate Filter Cleaner
JLM Diesel Particulate Filter Cleaner resolves blocked DPF issues without needing to dismantle the DPF. The cleaner ensures that the soot in the diesel particulate filter burns at a lower temperature, when the engine is under a light load and even during shorter journeys.
